Hi there!
We just moved into a new house in Park Slope. Our neighbors are clearly renovating the house next door into what looks like apartments. The problem is they have a huge loud pit bull looking dog that they leave in the yard consistently and barks all the time. Since we’ve never seen the neighbors we don’t know if they leave the dog out when they are not home or what, but the dog spends a major part of everyday outside barking. When we come out on our deck, the dog barks and growls at us. Since we just moved in we don’t want to get things off on the wrong foot, but any ideas on this problem? Should we leave a note for the neighbors, call the city or something? What’s the protocol? It’s so annoying!

  1. I had a neighbor too with a barking dog. I shot it with a beebee gun. Shoot it in the leg, it wont kill it. Then the neighbor will keep it inside.

  2. Yes call 311 that should definately get you far.

    “Um Hello, 311, ASPCA, I live in Brooklyn and there is this dog that is always barking. Its really annoying and I am scared to use my backyard”

    “Really, have you witness the dog being abused?”

    “No”

    “Has the dog attacked you or anyone else?”

    “No”

    “Has the dog escaped into your yard or caused damage to your property?”

    “No”

    “Dial Tone………………………”

    “Hello, HELLO, Dang”

  3. The sane voices here are those telling you to call 311 and the ASPCA. This dog, if being left outside all day barking, is being abused. 311 is very effective, and the ASPCA will move in quickly to remove the dog from it’s abusers.

  4. The dog is barking all the time because it doesn’t have adequate shelter or food.

    Duh.

    Call 311 and the ASPCA.

    Oh and sorry the suffering animals inconvenience you so much when they’re outside freezing in Winter and are pleading for help making the only sound they know how to make (called barking) 8:13. What, are you composing a symphony? Curing cancer? What is it you’re doing inside your home that’s so important? How about nothing, you useless heap of crap wasting oxygen and space.

  5. 6:21 is asking for our opinion in solving
    this problem I don’t think she is asking for
    some asshole remarks like 8:13 abd 6:44.
    you guys are not funny to say the least,just
    stupid ignorant assholes.

  6. Boil water . get as close as you can to the dog and then throw it at his mouth . It will burn his mouth, eyes, lips, nose, gums and everything in between . He WONT be able to bark again
